Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
The R-457 Active is a surprisingly capable 7-string for the money. It's geared toward players who want a modern, aggressive sound without spending a fortune, and the bolt-on neck provides a comfortable playing experience. While it won’t compete with high-end instruments, it’s a solid choice for beginners or players needing a budget-friendly 7-string for heavier genres.
